come on man you know these dirty hippies dont have bank accounts LOL

Seriously the backlash was from customers , not the protestors, although there prob were SOME protestors that did hold bank accts. However, the numbers that fled BOA outnumber the size of people at the protest. Im sure you can say they somehow linked the protest motivating people to leave, or bringing the issue up, but it was never a core issue . I cant even find it listed in any of their so called DEMANDS. I thought this was about corp and finiancing with the govt, not debit card fees LOL

But i suppose you guys will cherry pick what you think should be attributed to the movement.


I have a feeling if there was a referendum tomorrow calling for complete and total campaign finance reform, and new regulation on wall streets risky investments, you would think it would have nothing to do with these people protesting. LOL. When my tire has a flat, I don't say "Well, that nail stuck in the side of it had nothing to do with it"
Yeah Schumer proposed an ammendment today to the constitution, and hes received MILLIONS from wall street. Pot meet kettle.

Tea PArty has been calling for campaign finance reform and more for years, but i suppose none of that will be attributed to them. More cherry picking.

Ill give the OWS some credit, they fired up some people , but i still dont see any major changes coming from them.
